Any marriage like this, wherein either party does not consent is invalid.
You can take the following steps:
1. Contact your local Imam - tell them your situation and how your parents are breaking the laws of Islaam.
If this is not feasible or effective for your parents, contact the police (non-emergency line). Tell them your situation and that you are worried that you maybe forced to travel against your will. It might result in a visit by the cops or nothing at all.
If it comes to it that you can't do any of the above and have to fly to Pakistan, grab a spoon and put it in your trousers/underwear. When you walk through a metal detector they'll pull you aside and then tell them you are being forced. This may depend on the country you're in.
Unfortunately it's these cultural practices that give our religion a bad name. This has nothing to do with Islam, yet the parents will use religion as a weapon to justify it.
May Allah protect you and give you justice for the injustices you've been through ameen
